Publisher's Summary

In the tradition of his CBA best seller The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership and his sell-out seminars, author John C. Maxwell now provides a concise, accessible leadership book that helps listeners become more effective leaders from the inside out. Daily readings highlight 21 essential leadership qualities and include "Reflecting On It" and "Bringing It Home" sections which help readers integrate and apply each day's material.

I've heard this book in a much longer form years ago read by John himself. Here we have a 'new' version of the audio book and unlike many of the other books this one has a much better narrator. Here I was reminded of what is wrong with our current national and international leadership. I'm also reminded of basic leadership skills that I've forgotten and sometimes not applying and others I am. I found the book very informative about leadership and why we need some real leadership in the government, business, schools and our own homes.

This book tells you that to be a leader you have to be perfect. Basically it describes 21 characteristics that are generally appreciated by others. You could summarize this book in 2 pages. Lot of repetition and quotes, even quotes of John C. Maxwell himself! How stupid is that... I think the author has too much self-love which is obvious throughout the book. He is often describing his experiences and actions as the way to go.
